Aleksandar Mitrovic has said he doesn't know how to thank Fulham enough for giving him the support he's had since joining the club from Newcastle United on Deadline Day.

It has proved to be a match made in heaven - the Serbian's 12 goals in 16 games have propelled the Whites towards the automatic play-off spots, and it seems that Mitrovic has found a home after being pushed to the sidelines at St James' Park.

A host of clubs are reported to be after his signature, while Slavisa Jokanovic himself has admitted he would like to see the 23-year-old remain at Craven Cottage next season, although that will depend on Mitrovic and the club's recruitment department.

But for the moment, Mitrovic will see what happens, but wants to enjoy the moment and what has turned into a wonderful season.

He said: "We will see what happens, but I am really happy and thankful to all the fans and all the staff and players.

Since the beginning, I really enjoyed it and I'm really happy, I don't know how to thank them for all the kind words I get everyday from the support and fans, the staff and every person who works at Fulham.

"I am really happy, I really enjoy it but we will see what happens. I want to enjoy the moment and enjoy this season.

"I think we showed we deserve to be in the top two places for sure, but this is a really tough league and you don't know what will happen so that's why this league is the hardest.

"I speak about Championship but Premier League too, that's why it's so interesting and every player in the world wants to come and play in this country because the football is always interesting."

Jokanovic has been a big part of Mitrovic's time at Fulham and was a bit part of the reason why the striker chose Fulham after a move to Anderlecht fell through on Deadline Day.

And Mitrovic has explained what that trust has done for his confidence.

"When he bring me here he told me what he wanted from me, he explained everything," he added.

"He bring me here because he didn't have this type of striker and of course it's nice to have someone from your country and he show me support every day that he believe in me, he trusts me and you can see on the pitch.

"I am positive and confident, and really enjoy playing under him."
